Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC936LP6E is a 6-bit digital phase shifter
which is rated from 1.2 to 1.4 GHz, providing 360
degrees of phase coverage, with a LSB of 5.625
degrees. The HMC936LP6E features very low
RMS phase error of 1.2 degrees and extremely low
inser-tion loss variation of 0.5 dB across all phase
states. This high accuracy phase shifter is controlled
with positive control logic of 0/+5V and requires no
negative supply voltage. The HMC936LP6E is housed
in a compact 6x6 mm plastic leadless SMT package
and is internally matched to 50 Ohms with no external
components.
